Personally, I don't care for huge MP games. As good as MAG looks, I suspect you'd just end up with a room full of individuals doing their own thing rather than using the options the game presents. And it does sound incredible. Just doesn't work.
I prefer to have player hosted games, but that's because I pretty much game with the same people all the time and we know who can and can't host. Not crazy about gaming with the public, since they usually don't play in the spirit of the game. Also, games hosted on a dedicated server are doomed to have the plug pulled on them. I believe that's a regular practice of EA's with sports games. Chromehounds is an incredible game, but one day the plug will be pulled and it'll be pretty much bricked as a result.
